I did develop the module only on SQLite and haven't tried any other database yet. I guess that it will be fairly portable though, as I am not (yet) aware of differences between databases regarding the ALTER TABLE statement. The code currently only checks for the presence of a column and not for type differences, and it doesn't drop any columns.

I guess your use case would be that you have a table description in your program and want to (automatically) change the production table structure to the specified structure?
